Lee Ann Womack Lyrics

Album: Some Things I Know

A Little Past Little Rock Lyrics

I had to leave my life in Dallas

that town will always be you

in every crowd, on every corner,

every face I'd see you

so with nothing more than a tank of gas

I drove away without looking back

and I guess that's how I got where I am

going anywhere as fast as I can

Now I'm a little past Little Rock

further down the line

too soon to know what's up ahead

too late to change my mind

I've got to keep my heart out of this

and both hands on the wheel

I'm learning more with every mile

just how leaving feels

I't a lonely stretch of blacktop

out into the blue

don't know where I'll go

or what I'll do

I'm a little past Little Rock,

but a long way from over you

these headlights on the highway

disappear into the dark

and if I could have it my way

I'd go back to where you are

Oh, but I can't turn this thing around

and nothing short of breaking down

is gonna get me off this road I'm on

but I'm still a far cry from gone

But I'm a little past Little Rock

further down the line

too soon to know what's up ahead

too late to change my mind

I've got to keep my heart out of this

and both hands on the wheel

I'm learning more with every mile

just how leaving feels

I't a lonely stretch of blacktop

out into the blue

don't know where I'll go

or what I'll do

I'm a little past Little Rock,

but a long way from over you

I'm a little past Little Rock

but a long way from over you
